Solution for Needing New Fan for Progressive Dynamics Mighty Mini Panel PD4045KA

Question

Question:

Our 2016 camping trailer has a progressive dynamics PD4045KA converter. The fan has stopped working. Can just the fan be replaced, or will we need to replace the whole unit? Do you have the parts we will need?

Typically when this happens we recommend replacing the charger section of your # PD4045KA with the # PD4045CSV but looking at the fan that's on the circuit board it appears to be a standard computer style fan. So if you could find a computer repair shop to take the converter section to I'd be willing to bed they could replace the fan.
